This is a 6 band receive only filter designed to protect your receiver front end and provide 45dB reject at the stop bands. This is a 6-band receive only filter designed to protect your receiver front end and provide 45dB reject at the stop bands. Stop band reject may be limited by the relay isolation. Worse case isolation is at 28 MHz or 35 dB or better. Relay K3/K8 protects the filter during transmit via the PTT line. A 25-50ms delay must be used between transmit and PTT. Do not rely on your radio to provide adequate delay with out using the PTT. You logging software must be set to allow a delay between PTT and time of 1st transmit. This filter will not work with VOX or QSK keying as you will damage the filter.

This article details the design and construction of a compact 20-meter QRP SSB transceiver by Pete Juliano, N6QW, measuring just 2 x 4 x 2 inches—small enough for a shirt pocket. Inspired by a 1963 QST design and refined from a prior version, it employs bilateral circuits, a 4.9152 MHz homebrew crystal filter, switched-crystal VXO for 60 kHz coverage (14.160-14.220 MHz), and standard components like ADE-1L mixers and IRF510 PA for 1W output. Key innovations include a double-sided PCB skeletal frame for shielding and isolation, Vectorboard sub-assemblies, and ultra-miniature relays. The bilateral receiver/transmitter shares stages, omitting AGC for simplicity, while a W3NQN LPF and optional 10W external amp enable DX contacts. Tune-up focuses on crystal matching and bias for linearity. Videos on YouTube demonstrate performance, confirming excellent stability and audio. Total cost nears $100, prioritizing portability over features like CW.

The article discusses the construction of a UHF band-stop stub filter to protect an APRS receiver from potential damage during a balloon launch. The author, who communicates using a 441 MHz transmitter, needed to ensure that the RTL-SDR dongle receiving at 144 MHz wouldn't be damaged by the transmissions. The solution involved creating a quarter-wavelength open stub filter using coaxial cable, which attenuates the 441 MHz signal while allowing the 144 MHz signal to pass through. The filter's design is based on the principles of constructive and destructive interference, with careful measurement and trimming to achieve the desired frequency response. The final filter provided 34.8 dB of insertion loss at 441 MHz and minimal loss at 144 MHz, effectively protecting the receiver.
